Advisory visit according to §37,3 SGB XI as proof of ensuring the care situation

From care level 2 onwards, a consultation visit by an approved care service is required every six months. The purpose of this visit is to provide the health insurance company with proof that the care situation remains secure despite the payment of care allowance and care provided by family members. This proof confirms that sufficient support, organization, and care are in place and that all necessary measures are being implemented for the well-being of the person requiring care.

From care level 4 onwards, the required frequency increases: Consultations must then take place quarterly. Here, too, proof is provided to the health insurance company that the need for care is being continuously addressed and that adequate support is guaranteed.

Important instructions:

• The consultation visits are carried out by an approved nursing service.
• Conducting these interviews is legally required and serves as proof for the health insurance company.
